Everything now points to the tri umphant election of Grover Cleveland next Tuesday. Let no democrat fail to vote, and the great victory of the state election will be confirmed. From all over the Union comes the most cheering news for democracy. There is only one Democratic ticket in New York City and that is backed by the full power of Tammany Ilal!. Never were the democrats of Now York more harmonious nor in better command of the situation. This meaus that New York is going Democratic. A. S. McClure, of the Philadelphia Times, one of the closest and most in dependent political observers, says that the republicans have given New York up. The Herald says the republicans in the interior of the state will not give Harrison his usual majority, while the city’s tremendous registration means a greater democratic majority there. So that New York State may be set down as safe for Cleveland. New Jersey is always democratic, and it is figured that the following votes are certain for Cleveland : New York 36, New Jersey 10, Southern States 159—total 205. Michigan chooses her electors by congressional districts, and the repub licans concede four to the democrats, raising the total to 209. Fourteen more votes are required to elect. In diana is claimed as certainly demo cratic, which would give one more than necessary. Then there are the following States which are more than likely to be dem ocratic than republican this year, ac cording to the best - estimates that can be made: California 8, Connecticut 6, Illinois 22, Wisconsin 11. More sanguine calculators figure on Massachusetts and lowa going for Cleveland, but democrats are satisfied with the above showing for obtaining 223 electoral votes. It may be a landslide. Go out— And help make it so. It is strange bow some newspapers, as well as people, can only see their side of a question and understand one way, no matter what the facts may be. Atlanta boasts newspapers that are “especially gifted” in this direction. A statement was sent them this week by a prominent citizen, placing the credit for the capture of the murderers of Capt. Sloan where it justly belongs. They not only paid no attention to it, but the Constitution actually came out in the next issue and gave all of the credit to Atlanta’s Detective force. It’s Atlanta “first, last and always” with these newspaper. Don’t think your vote will not be needed next Tuesday, but be on hand and help make the dual victory sure. 9100 lteward SIOO. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a con stitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in do ing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address, F. J. Cheney & Co Toledo, O. by Druggists, 75c, A WORD OF COMMENDATION For the Efficient Officers Who by Their Efforts Captured the Mur derers of Capt. A<lam C. Sloau. The murder of Adam C. Sloan was one of the most attrocious and fiend ish crimes ever perpetrated in Henry county, and all our people feel more safely now that the perpetrators have been ferreted out and brought to jus tice. In this connection it will not be amiss we think to speak of the part enacted in this tragedy by those great aids to and upholders of law—the detectives, for the part they took forms one of the most striking features in the history of the case. It is a well known fact that the fam ily and enraged citizens jointly offered a reward of SI,OOO for the apprehen sion of the murderer or murderers with proof sufficient to convict, arid although every effort was put forward at the time it appeared that the guilty parties would go unpunished. Daniel Webster gave utterance to a truth that is being substantiated every day, aud was in this case : “Murder will out.” Although this act was com mitted in the dead hours of uight, wheu darkness hung heavy*over earth, and all mankind was wrapped in slum ber, and though the assassins with cunning shrewdness endeavored to cover the crime in mystery, still they left behind them signs which when un raveled by an expert gave a clue that lead to their appreoeusiou and finally to their conviction. After the reward was offered our efficient Sheriff, to whom great credit is due for the aid aDd assistance ren dered in bringing these bloody-handed criminals to justice, went to Atlanta aud laid the case aud Burroundiug cir cumstances before tbe Atlanta Detec tive force, who refused to take any ac tion in the matter at that time, so we have been informed, unless guaranteed a certain fee for their services whether they proved successful or not. This proposition was, of course, not accept ed. At last the attention of Detective Ike Gimble, of the Alabama Midland railway, was attracted to the case, aud ho at once decided to make some inves tigations. The history of how he, through the aid of Sheriff Glass and his negro assistant, Bill Williams, suc ceeded in gaining a confession from the murder, is already upon every body’s lips, therefore it is useless for us to go into a recital of the same. After Gimble’s success in tracing the negro, Jim Schaefer, down, then the Atlanta detectives became interested and succeeded in capturing Ben Bivins; but to Ike Gimble, of Alabama, the the credit of bringing the murders of this aged arid honored gentleman to justice, is due. “Honor to whom honor is due.” Dwellings Burned. Two serious fires have occurred in our county during the past week. The first was the residence of ’Squire Charles Patterson, near Tunis, on Sun day night last, the 30th ult. The building together with all of the house hold effects of this worthy family were consumed. The origin of the fire is unknown. Mr. Patterson's loss is very heavy, as he was carrying no in surance. The second was the dwelling of Mr. Q. A. Dickson, situated on his farm about a half mile north of the public square, on the Atlanta road, known as the Judge Allen Stewart old home place. This fire occurred on Tuesday morning 'ast, between the hours of nine and ten o’clock. It originated up stairs, and had gained such headway when discovered that it was impossible to check its advauces, or succeed in re moving but a small amount of the household effects. Mr. Dickson was in town when the alarm was given, and he, together with a number of friends, succeeded iu arriving rm the scene in time to save all of the out buildings. Mrs. Dickson was at home, but not iu the house, and therefore failed to dis cover the fire before it had become un controllable. This was also a total loss to Mr. Dickson, he not carrying any insurance. These gentlemen, and their families, have the sympathy of their numerous friends in their heavy losses. Primary Elections. The people of Henry county are confronted with one of the most pecu liar circumstances that has ever trans pired in their political history. On last Tuesday both the Demo cratic and People’s party Executive Committees met at this place, and both bodies assembled for the same purpose, viz : To set apart a day for holding a primary for county officers. Both were in session at the same time, and strange to say, each appoint ed and set aside the same day for hold ing the primaries. This brings about an occurrence ueyer before witnessed in our county and without a precedent, so far as we can learn, in state history: Two separate and distinct elections be ing held at each voting precinct iu the county at the same time. Both primaries are called for Satur day, the 3rd of December next. A CHILD SUFFERS, ■ While Its Father Refuses Relief for It from the Doetors. The following special wliieli appear ed in the Constitution a t> w days ago, 1 will be read with interest by the ciii zens of Henry county, as the party re ferred to formerly lived in Sandy Ridge district, where lie was well known : Athens, Ga., Oct. 26.—Watkinsville is considerably stirred up over what seems to be a case of faith cure crimi nal carelessness—at least that is the aspect of the story that comes from there. The story is to the effect that Rev. J. 8. Cowan, the evangelist who goes over the country trying to out-Jones Sam Jones himself, Las a little four year old child whose little life is being literally consumed with something like scurvey, and who is absolutely refused medical attention at all. Cowan is a faith cure crank, and has been engaged for some time in trying to establish a faith cure asylum in Florida. His little child has been an invalid for a long time. For mouths and months the disease has been grow ing worse, until now the report is that the little one’s teeth have all fallen out and the leading physician says its jaw bones are decayed almost entirely and will soon come out. The little body is covered all over with sores and ulcers. When, in this condition, the helpless child cries for relief its father simply tells it to go pray. It is said that when the neighbors call to interest the father and mother to have the child treated by a physi cian that no attention is paid to them, aud that the child is watched as close ly as a hawk watches chick ens, to see that no one slips medicine to it. An old negro woman stole it out the other day and was touching its affected parts when its mother, who holds to the same senseless faith as its father, found her and abused her terri bly. 'The citizens are becoming very in dignant over the affair and declare they will interfere. Cowan was licensed to preach in Watkinsville something over a year ago for one year on the conditions that if he showed up all right his liceuse would be reuewed, but when he presented them for renewal about two mouths ago he was ques tioned on Lis faith cure religion aud after making a statement the credeu tials were promptly cancelled. This story was printed in the Constitution at the time. Cowan held a meeting here last spring and was boycotted by both the local papers on account of his whole sale attack on the ministers of the city, because they advised against open air meetings on account of measles aud other diseases being prevalent in the city at the time. Ho is reported as saying that nothing shall be done for his child other than what he can do through his faith methods ; that if God wants to take it He can do so. He claims to have cured a number of people, one a man at Stone Moun tain, of consumption, by his faith process. This story was given me by several of tbe most responsible people in this section, some of whom have vis ited the Cowan home to plead with th 9 parents to do something for the child. Wasps in Church. The Methodist church iu this city is infested with wasps, and several ladies have been stung by them recently, while attending services there. It is deplorable that McDonough caunot furnish a better house of wor ship. What has become of our “new church” enthusiasm? We learn that the lady members have decided to take the matter in hand, raise the money and build a new church. We fully believe that if they will take charge of the work they will be more successful than the male members, and the new church will he built. May their every effort be blessed with success. Who will be the first to come for ward with a good sized subscription ? Mrs. X. V. Z. A Card of Thanks. I desire in this public manner to re turn my heartfelt thanks to the kind friends who contiibuted to my relief from my sore calamity on last Tuesday. I trust they may be spared such a loss as I have sustained, but if ever either of those who sought to save my property from the flames or contribu ted to my financial relief shall need my assistance iu the future I shall be happy to aid them as far as it is in my power to do so.

CATARRH Is a most loathsome, dangerous, and preva lent malady. It Is a blood disease, usually ot Scrofulous origin, and for which local treatment is useless. Before health Is pos sible, the poison must be eradicated from the system, and to do this SUCCESSFULLY the disease must be treated through the blood. For tills purpose no remedy is so effective as Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. “ For tlie past eight years, I have been severely afflicted with Catarrh, none, of the many remedies I tried affording me any re lief. My digestion was considerably im paired, and my sleep disturbed by phlegm dropping into my throat. In September last I resolved to try Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, began to use it at once, and am glad to testify to a great improvement in my health.” Frank Teson, Jr., engineer, 271 West Fourth street, New York City. “ My daughter, 16 years old, was afflicted with Catarrh from her fifth year.
